It doesn't take that long to write something, especially today when I can dictate what I want to write into my cell phone and edit it later. I can write close to 1000 words in about 20 minutes if I just open the project in my phone and start speaking.
The problem is I don't know exactly what I want to write about at any given moment. I have hundreds of ideas and I write them down in my notebook but I don't always have the desire to write those things when I feel like it's time to write. So today I just opened up Blogger and started speaking.
Finding things to talk about is not supposed to be difficult. As a human being we have millions of opinions at any one time. These opinions are just that, opinions. Everyone has their own opinion and they don't always have to coincide. This is one reason politics is such a big field. Everybody has their own thoughts about different issues.

I try to write about things that are happening to me at that specific moment. Like a week ago I had to destroy two wasps nests in my shed. That turned into a pretty decent blog post. Then I upgraded it to a hubpage.
If I don't plan what I'm going to write then the blog posts will turn into something like this. It is more of a stream of consciousness. It's what I'm thinking at that given moment. It may not always make perfect sense but it's what I'm thinking about today. It's something that I am interested in and if I'm interested in it, there's a pretty good chance that someone else out there is interested in it as well.
They say if you want to be a writer you need to write every day. This means you have to sit down and write something even if you can't seem to put words about the project you're working on at that given time on paper. If you can't come up with something then maybe you just need to talk. You just need to express what is going on inside your head and if you can do that then maybe that will unclog whatever it is that's going on in your mind.
I'm hoping this will help me find a way to just write something whenever I have a moment to actually dictate into my phone.
